    What’s the dominant theory for why the U.S. gets involved every 10 years?

    Does each war only last 10 years and they need to renew their subscription?

      Afghanistan lasted 20 years, so them having to renew every 10 years might be true

    If you want to get weird, there’s an astrologer named Nick Dagan Best that wrote a book about the US and 80-ish year cycles that follow the 7th planet in our solar system.

    It’s called “UranUSA”. I seriously think he might have just come up with the title and worked backwards.

    For this to make sense, we’d have to leave at some point in between the peaks…

    It’s been a forever war for generations at this point.

      It’s just predicting when the wars start, not when they end. They can overlap.

    Please tell me when we are going to get the solar activity that’s going to knock out all of Musk’s satellites and slow all this shit down to an effing crawl.

    Eh, they’re easy to spin up an excuse for, won’t terribly fuck up diplomatic ties and not likely to give a significantly challenging battle so they can hoot usa usa. Honestly at this point the US is just farming the middle east for jingoism points

    You joke, but there’s credible intelligence that Iranian scientists are close to completing an Antikythera Mechanism

        timeless, mystical technology for dancing to the music of the spheres…

        (Iran building tons of cool shit and cultivating local expertise under sanctions is an amazing accomplishment , and I hope they’re building sweet-ass planetariums)

    It’s hard to seriously call it an “intervention” when one man needed to extend the state of national emergency so that he’ll never sees one day in court on corruption charges.
